Tecore Networks Appoints Scott Hill as Executive Vice President of Global Commercial and Federal Sales

Columbia, Maryland – Tecore Networks, a leading provider of GSM, CDMA, 3G and multi-protocol mobile networks for emerging operators and rapid deployments, today announced that Scott Hill has joined the company as Executive Vice President of Global Commercial and Federal Sales.

Hill brings a track record of sales success to Tecore Networks, including as the chief architect for a highly profitable $500 million business development effort at Nextel Communications. In this capacity he guided unmatched revenue and subscriber base growth, and led the capture and award of the largest Service-focused contract in the company’s history: the $300 million Nationwide Department of Navy contract for exclusive wireless services. Hill’s experience spans a decade of building and growing both early-stage telecommunications and technology companies, as well as over-achieving and profitable business units within Fortune 100 companies. Combining his extensive business career with nearly 20 years of service as a special operations officer (Navy SEAL), Hill is extraordinarily qualified to address the deployment of communications technology in response to commercial and government challenges. He has served in leadership positions at WebSolve, Visual Networks and Financial Interactive, and had successful tenures at UUNET and Booz Allen & Hamilton. He has an engineering degree from the U.S. Naval Academy, and a Master of Science in Administration (minor in finance) from University of Oklahoma / Central Michigan University (conferred jointly).

“I am excited to be joining Tecore Networks and growing the company’s impressive customer base,” said Hill. “Tecore’s legacy stretches almost two decades and throughout this period the company has developed a distinction for delivering cost-effective and highly scalable mobile networks to a variety of countries, federal institutions and commercial enterprises. Our technologies apply to over three billion mobile subscribers worldwide today, and that number is growing fast. As wireless begins to overwhelm wireline as the primary means of communication, our opportunity lies in providing cutting-edge infrastructure to new operators including rural and new license networks, next-generation MVNOs and MVNEs, system integrators, public safety and emergency management, national governments and military organizations.”

“I welcome Scott Hill to Tecore,” said Jay Salkini, President and CEO, Tecore Networks. “His sales and management track record further strengthens our team, and enables us to enhance relationships in existing markets as well as identify new areas of application for our award-winning product portfolio. We will delight more customers and accelerate our growth globally.
